Default Clivia - when cut bloom stem?

Unless you intend to grow plants from seed, you should cut the flower scapes
after they are finished blooming. Only cut the flower scapes not the leafy
stems.



Actually the mature fruit is a fleshy berry not a pod.

Seems like I never get a handle on Clivia.
Always something I'm not sure of.

(Though in my defense, I have divided and moved
plants several times with 100% success!)

Q: When do I cut back the stem that held the
(divine!) blooms?

They are now forming the seed pods.

Should I cut the stem back to the ground? Or?

TIA
